The German Cognitive Linguistics Association (DGKL/GCLA) is pleased to 
announce its 9^th international conference, DGKL/GCLA-9, to be held at 
the University of Erfurt, from 23^rd to 26^th Sept. 2020. We are now 
inviting proposals for contributions.

In line with the framing theme of the DGKL-9 “Cognitive Linguistics as 
an Interdisciplinary Endeavour: Theoretical and Methodological 
Challenges”, our plenary and keynote speakers will bring in a wide 
variety of cognitive and usage-based perspectives on language, 
illustrating the impressive methodological repertoire that the 
proponents of the cognitive-functional paradigm in linguistic research 
have accumulated over the past decades:

·/Ewa Dabrowska/(FAU Erlangen): The effects of literacy on grammar

·/Dirk Geeraerts/(KU Leuven): Boons and Bournes of Cloud Chasing. Recent 
developments in distributional corpus semantics

·/Natalia Levshina/(MPI Nijmegen): Communicative efficiency: 
Typological, corpus-based and experimental evidence

·/Irene Mittelberg /(RWTH Aachen)://Cognitive semiotic theory as a 
common denominator for interdisciplinary, empirical gesture research

·/Friedemann Pulvermüller/(FU Berlin): Neural assemblage and 
decomposition in construction learning

·/Sabine Stoll/(University of Zurich): Title to be announced

·/Kristian Tylén/(Aaarhus University): Language as shaped by the environment

·/Stefanie Wulff/(University of Florida & UiT The Arctic University of 
Norway): Enjoying methods responsibly: In favor of theory-driven methods 
selection

Papers from all subfields of Cognitive-Functional Linguistics are kindly 
invited, including those wishing to discuss points of a theoretical 
nature or those pursuing applied perspectives. Papers supporting the 
conference theme, i.e. exhibiting a strong empirical basis and/or clear 
interdisciplinary approach, are especially welcome. The working

languages are welcome.
